Todaiji Temple - Tegaimon Gate
This impressive gate is located in the north-west of the temple precinct, on the west side of Shosoin Hall, and has the style of an eight-pillared, three bayed gate with one entrance. This is one of the few buildings within the temple complex still remaining, even after the fires set by Taira-no Shigehira (1180), and the fires from the battle of Miyoshi / Matsunaga (1576) and is the single remnant allowing us to imagine Tempyo Era temple architecture of Todaiji Temple.
